Niki Nicholas Nkuna Poems

Love is nothing else but 'LOVE'
It is pure, No attachments,
Nor do we need to beautify it for acceptability,
To whomever it is given,
...

Man live for hatred,
Man live for fighting,
Man live for selfishness,
Man live for destruction,
...

Who are you?
I'm Mr or Mrs T,
They simply call me ‘T'
I am transversal not transvestite,
...

Driving with my mind in the clouds,
I'm likely to miss the joys of the present,
I'm likely to see less of my surroundings,
I'm likely to fall into a ditch,
...

Carpet riders on steady skates,
Love their shoes, short of the red carpet,
Wind blowing, the puppet skeletons,
Flailing sideways, up and down,
...

Black clouds hovering ominously above the sky,
The sound of storm afar,
Between fear and nonchalance I react not,
Looking up the sky I assume the weather man's valour,
...

I had my heart intact,
All my possessions intact,
Sunrise, sundown I count my possessions,
As always, I find them in the right number and intact,
...

I'm afraid I can't tell you I don't like your face,
It is flat like the back of a bus,
It is disgusting and I strain to look at you,
Do I have a choice not to smile at you? I don't think so,
...

The road via the children's playground is the easy way,
Running downhill, effortless,
I reached my destination in bewilderment,
The calabash empty, I remained tasty,
...

Seeing the Promised Land in her vision strengthened her believe and resolve,
To scale all higher and lower mountains, cross wide and narrow rivers,
Walk through thorny bushes with bare feet,
Through forests infested with all kinds of vicious creatures,
...
